06/30/2015

(KNZA)--Two Hiawatha men charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of an Iowa man have waived extradition.

41-year-old Jon Rubendall and 39-year-old James Bost appeared before a Brown County District Court Judge Tuesday morning.

Authorities from Iowa and Kansas arrested the two men in Hiawatha Friday in the death of 44-year-old Allen Pafford, of Nodaway, Iowa. 

An affidavit says authorities found Pafford tied up in a workshop near his mother’s home in Nodaway on June 20, with a bedsheet wrapped around his head and neck and a bullet wound in the back of his head.

According to the document, Bost told authorities that Pafford owed Rubendall $3,000 for drugs.

Both men remain in the Brown County Jail on one million dollars bond awaiting transport to Iowa.
